Reasons why water and wind erosion are diffrent.

Wind erosion is occurred when pieces of the earth are worn away by the strong winds. It occurs in dry bare areas when wind blows and moves the dirt around. Wind erosion causes damage to the crops by removing the soil which crops needed from it. Wind erosion can be prevented by soil tiling and by properly managing the crops.

Water erosion is the process where the piece of earth is worn away by water. It occurs at river banks or streams. Muddy water is the sign of water erosion. Water erosion is the more powerful erosion than wind erosion.

Wind erosion often occurs in dry areas and destroys crops. Water erosion occurs near bodies of water and is considered more powerful.

Which situation describes the highest rate of power?

Darya [45]

Answer : The correct option is, (D) A machine does 400 joules of work in 5 seconds.

Explanation :

Power : It is defined a the rate of doing work per unit time.

Formula used :

$P=\frac{w}{t}$

where,

P = power

w = work done

t = time

Now we have to determine the rate of power for the following options.

(A) A machine does 200 joules of work in 10 seconds.

$P=\frac{200}{10}=20W$

(B) A machine does 400 joules of work in 10 seconds.

$P=\frac{400}{10}=40W$

(C) A machine does 200 joules of work in 5 seconds.

$P=\frac{200}{5}=40W$

(D) A machine does 400 joules of work in 5 seconds.

$P=\frac{400}{5}=80W$

From this we conclude that, a machine does 400 joules of work in 5 seconds has the highest rate of power.

Hence, the correct option is, (D)

a football player kicks a ball with a mass of 0.42kg. The average acceleration of the football was 14.8 m/s2. How much force did

Zarrin [17]

Answer:

6.216 N

Explanation:

As for Newton's second law of motion

F=ma

where F= the acting force

m=subjected mass

a= the acceleration

applying F=ma to the football

F=m*a

=0.42*14.8

=6.216 N

6.216 N of a force is supplied to the ball

An archer puts a 0.30-kg arrow to the bowstring. An average force of 201 N is exerted to draw the string back 1.3 m. Assuming th

vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

41.74 m/s

Explanation:

The energy used to draw the bowstring = the kinetic energy of the arrow.

Fd = 1/2mv²................................ Equation 1

Where F = force, d = distance move string, m = mass of the arrow, v = speed of the arrow.

make v the subject of the equation

v = √(2Fd/m)...................... Equation 2

Given: F = 201 N, m = 0.3 kg, d = 1.3 m.

Substitute into equation 2

v = √(2×201×1.3/0.3)

v = √(1742)

v = 41.74 m/s.

Hence the arrow leave the bow with a speed of 41.74 m/s

If the torque required to loosen the nut that is holding a flat tire in a place on a car has a magnitude of 35 N•m what minimum

VashaNatasha [74]

Answer: F = 130 N

Explanation: Solution:

Convert first 27 cm to m.

27 cm x 0.01 m / 1 cm = 0.27 m

Calculate the torque using T = Fd

Derive to find force F

F = T /d

= 35 N.m / 0.27 m

= 130 N
